Keep an eye out at Aldi, bought two solid metal ones for thirty bucks a pop. The quality and seals are good!

Ive decided to buy Fuel Drums, local servos here want $1.25+ for diesel and $1.40+ for 98ron at the fuel depot (200L minimum purchase) in the next town over Diesel is 98c a L and 98Ron is $1.04L Sure the price fluctuates but far out... Im perplexed how I can buy thinners barrels for 15 bucks but somehow a crappy old jerry can is fetching 70+ bucks at the usual suspects

Any chance you can put up a link...?

Cant see those prices down here & i want to get another couple...
I regret not getting them couple years ago--i got 2 from BCF...great palstic cans at $29 each...i just figured thats always been the price of them for the last 20 odd years so never expected them to double...thieving bustards...

Can’t do the link mate. That was a while ago I just saw them on sale in the shop. For thirty years now I have been carting Plastic Gerry cans. It amazes me that I have not yet punctured one .....I recently made some sheet metal specific compartments so now they are in a situation where they are out of the way , secure. And with nothing near them to rupture them
